Hi All, We are having a high priority issue.we are using openstreet map for display. The Paracel islands is showing Chinese text meaning 'Tam Sa'. Is there some way to remove the Chinese characters ? regards, Amit |

This has been earlier on the agenda. OSM doesn’t take a stand in this kind of issues. Where states have different views on what’s what and who’s ruling it. Please read this question an answer. https://help.openstreetmap.org/questions/21167/hoang-sa-paracel-islands-and-truong-sa-spratly-islands-vietnam 1
Well we need a way out to remove the Chinese characters somehow from the map. Are these stored in some text/metadata files? Is there a way to remove these?

OpenStreetMap is a vast database of mapping information. If you don't like the way that this information is presented in the default map 'tiles', you can render your own. See http://switch2osm.org/ for details.

If you just want a static map image you could export your area of interest as a PDF/SVG and remove the conflicting text afterwards. |
